So KAWS will be at Art Basel Miami this year, the main reason why I am extremely upset that I can not make it. I have always wanted to meet him but I seem to miss all his galleries featured in Miami. Customz will be at Art Basel to give you guys some great photos so dont worry. Check out the video.

Jeff Staple, most famously known for his pigeon logo and also in the sneaker world for collaborating with Nike sb to release one of the most exclusive sbs, the Nike Sb NY Pigeons. Jeff just released this 5 Panel cap for his STPL line, I guess he felt the New Era was played out just like I did. STPL cap is available now at Reed Space for only $40.

Kanye West takes over Interview Magazine and conducts his own interview for Rihanna. Its amazing because you not only get the oppurtunity to get to know what Rihanna is doing, you also get a look at what Kanye is up to as well as he talks about working on his collab album with Jay. Read it HERE.

Before, Condo wasnt a household name until Kanye West decided to use him for his album cover art, expecially the most popular one that was banned from Target and a few other stores who carried Kanye's new album. Well, Condo talks to New york Magazine about the album covers designed by him.

Head with sword

“I really like that idea of a Shakespearian thing,” West told Condo about this painting of a severed head wearing a crown. The piece’s two contrasting styles — “cubism and classicism forged together in a single painting” — dovetail, Condo says, with West’s music, with its “layers of different styles happening simultaneously.” What did Kanye see in the picture that made him like it? “His tragedy was a kind of exile that Kanye imposed upon himself,” Condo says. “He was free from exile by having the cathartic moment in the image. He’s alive in the painting, you know what I mean? In a strange way it’s like, he opened his eyes.”

Ballerina

Condo remembers that West came to his studio between eight and ten times over the course of the summer. The ballerina — a concept that later worked its way into West’s “Runaway” film and performance at the VMAs — came from one of those visits. “We were hanging around one night, and we were listening to that tune ‘Runaway,’” Condo recalls, when his wife, Anna, showed West a a shot of French dancer Sylvie Guillem moving in slow motion. “And somehow Kanye grabbed onto that idea of the ballerina,” Condo explains. “He just said, ‘Hey man, I’d like to have a great ballerina painting.’ I thought of a ballerina toasting. You know, ‘let’s toast to the scumbags.’”

Naked sphinx straddling Kanye

“That’s a good painting,” Condo says matter-of-factly. “She’s a kind of fragment, between a sphinx, a phoenix, a haunting ghost, a harpy. And then Kanye is also in some sort of strange 1970s burned-out back room of a Chicago blues club having a beer — so far away from the real Kanye West that it’s just a scream.” In painting Kanye in such an outrageous situation, Condo says, “I was challenging him with the imagery as well. He said, ‘I’m shocked, but I like it, and I gotta go with my gut feeling.’” This cover’s already been banned by Wal-Mart and Apple’s iTunes Music Store, much to Condo’s disgust. “The superimposition of people’s perceptions on a cartoon is shocking,” Condo scoffs. “What’s happening in their minds should be banned. Not the painting.”

If you havent heard already, the hundreds will be collaborating with Garfield. Yes, Garfield the cat. From the success of their last collaboration with Disney, I feel this collab will be pretty popular as well. TH will have an art show on Dec. 9th to showcase the original inspired artwork.

Sneaker boutiques all over the world will be looking out for the sneaker heads that are on the hunt for unbelievable sales this Friday. That said, Miami’s Shoe Gallery will be hosting a big Black Friday Sale in which everything black will be 40% off. The item purchased must be predominately black, and the discount does not apply to items already on sale.-Lex.

I havent posted sb's on here in awhile but look what will hit your local skateshop in December. Elephant print and Nike sbs make a great combination for a great shoe. Reminds me of my black and pink box days. Expect this to be a cop for me and a cop for everybody else. If you cant wait and you can read Chinese, they are availabe now at Kasina.
